The real problem with electronic cigarettes
The electronic cigarette is an alternative proposal to the people who want to successfully fight on smoking or necessarily quit , and say relative because the solution does not seem quite short, since it seems to have a greater propensity to defect after use . This is because the device must be connected to which the cigarettes in question, should control the release of nicotine in each puff of the person, but apparently this has no effect on other agents that cause the dependency snuff (although this case would be talking about the essence of snuff). On the contrary, seems to have an increased risk for toxic and carcinogenic effects.
Also known as e-Cigs , Electronic cigarettes have, among other active components glycerol, propylene glycol, butyl valerate, etc., all poisons that are small sprinkling of other circulatory system components harmful to the internal structures of its elements. And of course the respiratory system is also impaired. In the first instance, the combined emissions of the substances may have a power of concentration far more serious than the tar, and that’s saying a compound similar to current cigarette but does not.
The fashion of the electronic cigarette is due according to many health experts in the field while trends in the enthronement of the digital society on the simplest aspects of everyday life. For now, where the use of other electronic components is more evident, smoking occupy such other of the places for the list of new destructive habits. Of course you have established rules regarding the use of electronic cigarettes in several countries where such use is permitted but not its internal and external advertising.
But why the electronic cigarette makers boast that the unit only vaporizes the contents of the so-called cartridge, if all the components that has the electronic cigarette go directly to the respiratory system? Because they think that this is done less damage to the body when in fact the levels of uptake of each of the e-Cig substances are able to concentrate equally enormous, and there is no effective way to assess the real damage of these real agents. Of course time will tell if there is or harsher laws lenient on this, but the problem is latent.

When He Wanted to Quit
After the discussion you had yesterday on the smoking ban and its consequences, I wondered how I was when I smoked, and what my position today if it were a drug addict. Because I smoked a whopping 30 years, from 14 to 44 years old.
Fortunately or unfortunately for me, I leave my trail of thought, not always linear, not always consistent, as my own life, like a shared diary from the media when I was publishing opinion columns. On May 11, 1989, almost 22 years ago, I wrote a column in the newspaper La Gaceta de los Negocios, of which he was Editor in Chief, which explained my fears for my numerous failed attempts to quit smoking. It was titled “One of these days I quit” and then you play it for you to understand why one of my favorite meditations: “Every day I do not believe in less things.” There he goes. I start off my clothes.
One of my biggest obsessions is to stop smoking. It invest much of my energy. I’ve tried so often and sometimes I enrolled in English classes, my other unmentionable vice. Of the latter was curin to remember that my strength was sufficiently rich taylor, while I lost money and time to baskets. Above all, time. Because, says a friend of mine, whites enjoy more leisure time than the Spanish because they do not take overtime to learn English.
